But Jehoshabeath, the daughter of the king, took Joash the son of Ahaziah, and stole him from among the king's sons that were slain, and put him and his nurse in a bedchamber. So Jehoshabeath, the daughter of king Jehoram, the wife of Jehoiada the priest, (for she was the sister of Ahaziah,) hid him from Athaliah, so that she slew him not.
Men kongedatteren Josabat tok Joas, Akasjas sønn, og førte ham hemmelig bort fra kongesønnene som skulde drepes, og førte ham og hans amme inn i sengkammeret; der skjulte Josabat, kong Jorams datter, presten Jojadas hustru, ham - for hun var søster til Akasja - for Atalja, så hun ikke fikk drept ham.
